Thank you so much, San Diego Comic Con, for inviting us back for a second year to do a live podcast recording!
This year we were so excited to chat with one of our favorite humans, the lovely Sam Maggs.
This is a very special episode that we’re very excited to finally be able to present to you. For the past few years, we’ve been hitting the con circuit with a panel called Building Your Own Themyscira (Thank you, Chavon Coleman, for being the brains behind this!). We have a rotating lineup of guests who talk about networking in their niche, building community, and actually supporting each other. We were finally able to record this for real at San Diego Comic Con, and we’re so excited to finally share this with you!
Hello, Sartorial Geeks!
We’re so excited to see so many of you at San Diego Comic Con this year. Unfortunately out of our editing team, only Jordan will be there this year (fingers crossed Liz can make it next year!), and we won’t have a booth home base. BUT there are three panels you can find me at, and I’ll be floating around as many meet ups as I can!
SDCC starts in a week (cue panic), and con prep is in full swing.
No matter how many cons I’ve gone to, I live and die by packing lists and checklists. We’ve written our fair share of convention survival guides and have scoured the internet for the best of con prep advice.
The Sartorial Geek is heading to SDCC!
The Sartorial Geek is hosting our very first live podcast episode at SDCC! Unfortunately the entire team can’t be there this year, but me (Jordan from Jordandené) and my husband Joey (aka the wonderful designer behind everything we do) are so excited to spend this week at San Diego Comic Con. The Sartorial Geek won’t have an official booth setup, but we’ll be at the con every day and trying to meet as many people as possible.
Please come say hi if you see us (you can find updates about where we’re hanging out and what I’m wearing each day in the Jordandené IG stories).
If you want to hang out at one of our official events, here’s our SDCC schedule for 2018:
9:00 PM Wednesday – Game of Bloggers (We’ll have a little pop up shop selling Jordandené accessories and copies of The Sartorial Geek magazine issue two!)
6:00 PM Thursday – Her Universe Fashion Show (Not involved in any way but finally attending the NYFW of the geek world for the first time!)
1:00 PM Friday – Create Your Own Fandom-Themed Fashions (I’m chatting about geeky fashion on this Fashionably Nerdy panel!)
5:00 PM Friday – Building Your Own Themyscira (Our first SDCC panel! Chatting with some rad geek bosses about building connections and networking and supporting your community)
11:00 AM Saturday – Live Sartorial Geek Podcast (I’m chatting with Tiffany and Matt of Whosits and Whatsits about Disney live and Disneybounding!)
3:00 PM Saturday – Level Up: Be a Nerd Boss (I’m joining some other nerd bosses to talk about being a geeky business owner!)
4:00 PM Saturday – Nerd Boss Meetup (Following our panel, we’ll be hanging out at the Mariott Marquis!)
We can’t wait to nerd out with you all! Leave a note in the comments if we’ll see you there!
I still have yet to make it to San Diego Comic Con and that’s a huge bummer. And the biggest bummer of all? Missing out on all the amazing SDCC exclusives! But, despite all of my serious FOMO, I want all of you that are going to have an amazing time and make the most out of your con experience… and what would that be without some shopping?! So, without further ado, I present to you all of the geek-chic SDCC exclusives you need to add to your wardrobe this week.
(Also, I’m not going to explicitly state that someone should hand-deliver all of these to me in Brooklyn, but I certainly wouldn’t complain if they did.)
